People Who Leave A Great Impression On Us

Friday, December 30, 2011

Good morning wonderful Great Impressions followers! It's almost the new year can you believe it? 2012....wow!!! Anyone have any resolutions they'd like to share? I personally don't do resolutions...not sure why; I guess mainly because I feel like if I need/want to make some changes in my life I shouldn't wait for a certain day to roll around to do so....lol! But there is nothing wrong with setting goals for things you'd like to accomplish in the coming year. My goal would be to get more organized. I feel totally out of sorts lately so I need to come up with a few things for remembering things (my brain is gone as well) and for keeping track of things, especially DT commitments.
Anyway.....for the New Year at Great Impressions a brand new online store is about to be opened! They are "trying" very hard to have it up and ready around the 1st but if not....I promise it won't be too long after that, that you will be able to do all your Great Impressions shopping at their personal online store! That was one of the reasons for starting up this blog again. To help spread the word about Great Impressions and their store so I really hope to see this blog grow over the new year and of course see some amazing sales over at the online store!
I hope you'll frequent the blog because each day we will have a design team member doing a post for all of you using the wonderful Great Impressions stamps and they have been hard at work getting their posts ready to start next week.

So I hope all of you have a wonderful New Years Eve and an amazing New Year!!!!!

I wanted to share with all of you the Stamp of the Month program. This is a program was designed for stores only! So if you want the stamp of the month you need to find a craft store near you that carries them. After that month is over you are then able to buy the stamps online or from the catalog!

Here is the Stamp of the Month for Dec.

Yum, Yum...those cupecakes look amazing...and I have a love love relationship with coffee so I live those little coffee cups

And here are some lovely works of art made by some employee's of Great Impressions!

Keep your eyes out for a few DT cards to pop up in the next few days. They couldn't wait to get started even though we won't be "officially" starting till January!!

All stamps from Great Impressions are available wood mounted or as Stickablestamps, red rubber mounted on cling foam for your acrylic blocks. Starting in September you will also be able to purchase our current program stamps as Stickablestamps too!

Our new website is still under construction, we will let you know when it is up and running. We are super excited about our new website as it will have a lot of features that our current website does not have. We feel that this will make it easy for everyone to find and order Great Impressions stamps in either our wood mounted stamps or our NEW Stickablestamps. We will also have a large gallery for card ideas.

You can now purchase all of our open stock stamps as Stickablestamps. These are our new stamps on cling foam. These are indexed on the back for easy placement with the exception of some of the smaller sized stamps. The stamp of the month stamps will be available as Stickablestamps once they are no longer part of the program and are available as openstock.

Our new 2011-2012 catalogs are available. They are $8.00 plus shipping. To order a catalog you can call us at 800-373-5908 or email us at greatstamps@localaccess.com. If you have any questions regarding our stamps or programs, please feel free to contact us.

If you have a store in your area that you would like to see carry our line of stamps, let me know and I can send them one of our catalogs as well as some of our program information.

We have been extremely busy here getting a new catalog organized and ready for the printer, now we get to tackle the new website!!! I have to say that you will love the new website and it will have a search engine so you can find your favorite GI stamps faster.

In the mean time, I thought I would put a card on here that one of the GI employees has created. Jody works in the shop making the rubber stamps. We think she is a very talented card maker, dont you agree?

Stay tuned as I have a few more of her cards that I will share with you tomorrow.
